Safe operating conditions
![]() | Pressure The internal operating pressure safety of the glass equipment system depends not only on the diameter, shape, and operating temperature of the glass component, but also on the materials used for all connectors and seals. The safety internal gauge pressure of the entire system is often determined by the component with the lowest safety operation gauge pressure in the system. All glass components are suitable for vacuum conditions. |
According to the nominal diameter, the maximum allowable working pressure value of the pipe used, gauge pressure (Mpa), should comply with the provisions of the following table:
| DN | DN15 | DN20 | DN25 | DN40 | DN50 | DN80 | DN100 | DN150 | DN165 Φ180 | DN200 | DN215 Φ230 | DN300 Φ315 | DN400 | DN600 |
| Mpa | 0.2 | 0.2 | 0.15 | 0.1 | 0.1 | 0.1 | 0.1 | 0.1 | 0.1 | 0.1 | 0.1 | 0.1 | 0.07 | 0.07 |
![]() | Temperature In pipeline systems, all glass and structural components can operate at temperatures up to 150 ℃, so there are no separate regulations for each component operating at lower temperatures. The temperature limit of glass equipment depends not only on the glass components, but also on the material characteristics of the connecting flanges, seals, and other accessories. At the same time, it is necessary to avoid rapid and irregular heating of glass components or sudden cooling of hot glass components, which can cause high tensile stress and lead to the rupture of glass components. |
